The basis for determining the temperature characteristics of the pavement were the temperature measurements of multi-layer structures. For the design of pavements structures in the calculations we consider the deformation of materials for equivalent temperatures derived from actual measured temperatures. The strain and stresses in concrete slabs are important I significant temperature gradients - the temperature difference at the top and bottom surfaces. In the paper are examples of calculations and impact of standard and changing weather conditions on the dimensions of the structures and pavements lifetime.
